BBQ Glazed Chicken Wings By Blue Apron

On the agenda for the blog today is of course a delicious recipe, but this one isn’t ours. It’s been awhile since we’ve shared a Blue Apron meal, or talked about the service in general. Today we are excited to chat about these BBQ glazed wings, and a big improvement Blue Apron has made to their service.

If you’ve read any of my old post’s featuring Blue Apron recipes, which a few are listed below, it’s easy to see why I have continued with my subscription.

It’s cost efficient, so instead of going to the market and buying too much of one ingredient, Blue Apron sends you only what you need per recipe, and pre measured out. Since it’s just me and the hubby, we are signed up for the 2 person plan which gives you 3 meals a week. It’s wonderful too because you can choose to skip a week anytime. There are weeks where I will choose to skip because I don’t think i’ll enjoy a certain recipe. Up until recently, I found myself doing that more and more often, and I’ll tell you why. Before, they gave you 6 recipe options to choose from, however you could only choose a certain combination. So when I would choose 2 recipes, they automatically chose the 3rd recipe for me. Not only have they gotten rid of this restriction, you now have the option of choosing from 8 recipes without limits. Honestly, I was about to give it up, and I am so glad I stuck it out. Since this change has been made, I have yet to find a combination of recipes I think the husband and I won’t enjoy. And these BBQ wings are no different.

Seriously though, who doesn’t crave wings at one point or another. Well of course people who can’t or don’t eat meat, but those of us that do would love to have a recipe like this on hand. This sweet bbq glaze is made from scratch and is just to die for. And the coleslaw salad on the side is perfectly refreshing for this time of year. I followed the recipe exactly and it couldn’t have come out better.

The detailed instructions provided allows any person to prepare restaurant quality meals, and is obviously a big selling point for most. Honestly, some recipes are better than what you’d get eating out. Check this awesome service out, It comes highly recommended by yours truly! Hope you enjoyed our post for the day, and happy cooking!

1sweet potato

1/2lbgreen cabbage

2tbsmayonnaise

2tbsmolasses

1tbsdijon mustard

1tbssugar

1/4cupapple cider vinegar

1/4cupketchup

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 475°F. Line a sheet pan with aluminum foil. Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels and place on the prepared sheet pan. Drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper; toss to thoroughly coat. Arrange in a single layer. Roast 22 to 24 minutes, or until lightly browned and cooked through. Leaving the oven on, remove the roasted chicken wings from the oven. Leaving the foil on the sheet pan, carefully transfer the chicken wings to a large bowl.

While the chicken wings roast, wash and dry the fresh produce. Cut the sweet potato lengthwise into 8 equal-sized wedges. Cut out and discard the cabbage core; thinly slice the leaves. Peel the carrot and grate on the large side of a box grater. Cut off and discard the root ends of the scallions; thinly slice, separating the white bottoms and green tops.

While the chicken wings continue to roast, line a separate sheet pan with aluminum foil. Place the sweet potato on the prepared sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper; toss to thoroughly coat. Arrange in a single, even layer. Roast, turning halfway through, 13 to 15 minutes, or until browned and tender when pierced with a fork. Leaving the oven on, remove the roasted sweet potato from the oven.

While the sweet potato roasts, in a medium bowl, combine the cabbage, carrot, white bottoms of the scallions, sugar, mayonnaise, and half the vinegar; season with salt and pepper. Set aside to marinate, stirring occasionally, for at least 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

While the slaw marinates, in a bowl, whisk together the molasses, ketchup, mustard, and remaining vinegar. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Add half the glaze to the bowl of roasted chicken wings; toss to thoroughly coat. Reserving the bowl, return the wings to the prepared sheet pan in a single layer. Roast 3 to 5 minutes, or until heated through. Remove from the oven and carefully return to the bowl. Add the remaining glaze; carefully toss to coat. Divide the glazed wings and roasted sweet potato between 2 dishes. Garnish with the green tops of the scallions. Serve with the slaw on the side. Enjoy!
